SUBJECT: Holy Spirit
BIBLE VERSE: I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire: Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire. (Matthew 3:11-12)
COMMENT: The forerunner of Jesus, (namely, John the Baptizer), preached repentance from sins, and he baptized people as a public testimony that they wanted to live for the Lord. But John knew that the Lord Himself, who is Jesus Christ of Nazareth, would soon bring the Holy Ghost of God to thoroughly clean, purify, and energize God's people.
PRAYER: Thank You, Lord, for Your disciple, John. I want to see You, Jesus, in much the same way he did. And I thank You, Jesus, that You have indeed baptized me with the Holy Ghost. Amen.
AMEN
